We are considering skipping our 40th, Class of 1988 and instead, opt to wait 10 years to see if there is more interest then.
PLEASE GO TO THE POLL PAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS!
However, if we do have the reunion it will be July 22nd, 2028 at 7:00 till close at a to be determined facility.
Therefore, we need everyone's input as to whether we should "Skip the 40th" and wait till the 45th or continue to have one every 5 years????
COMBINED 1988 with 1987??? REUNION, SEE BELOW:
The 40th Class of 1988 reunion will be a one-night event located, in a yet to be determined location, see POLL for suggestions. The past one was planned to be in "The Ballroom" of the Greysolon however, due to limited number of attendees we moved it downstairs to the Moorish Room; however, this accommodated our group size well. We invited the “Class of 1987” to join us which, I believe worked out well and increased our numbers; plus, it was more fun to have our fellow classmates from 1987 there as well! Secondly, after this many years it was nice to see all of you that attended the 35th. I will create a Facebook event for additional awareness, 2 years prior to the event, since, FB only allows an event to be created 2 years prior. So, until then, anyone that wants to assist on the 40th (potential 41st for the 1987 class, again see polling page) reunion, what we need the MOST help with is spreading the word and finding the missing classmates to ensure we have a GREAT turn-out for July 22nd 2028 reunion.
Please try and find anyone listed on the LOST CLASSMATES page, as well as, continue to spread the word via Facebook (FB), email, text messaging word of mouth, passenger pigeon, etc. Please ensure they all know of this website and the date chosen for our 40th Class of 1988 reunion.
Keep in mind a lot of our fellow classmates do not utilize FB nor do they live in the Duluth area. We have A LOT of classmates that live literally all over the world. Not just all over the US but, we have a lot of classmates overseas!!!!
However, finding our lost classmates will not be easy but, if anyone is willing to help.....well, start your web crawler engines and start searching/finding!
I want to thank all of you whom attended the 2023 reunion!
A BIG thank you to the following people for the help with our 35th reunion: Hannah and Hallee Ballavance (door registration/security/"bouncers"), Todd & Mary Hautajarvi-Otto & Michelle & Jeff Hoscheid (setup/clean-up), and Jake Dryke, Brian Dougan & Brandon C. Scott (donations).
We look forward to seeing all of you, again, that attended the 35th, as well as, looking forward to seeing our other classmates that could not attend the last one including, (potentially) our fellow 1987 friends/classmates on July 22nd, 2028 for our 40th!!!
Stay healthy and happy!
P.S. Please take the time to upload any pictures taken at the 2023 35th reunion to the "History Captured/2023 35th reunion" photo album. I will have a "slide"-show" at the next reunion with all the wonderful pictures!!
